[0027] Example

[0028] See also Figure 1-4 The utility model is a variable-grid chute for a high-response sorting system, comprising a guide plate 3 for guiding the sorting and receiving of logistics goods, a swing component 1 for swinging and adjusting the guide plate 3, and a linear guide rail 2 for linear reciprocating movement of the swing component 1;

[0029] The linear guide rail 2 includes a guide rail seat 21, a lead screw 24 movably arranged inside the guide rail seat 21, and a motor 22 for rotating the lead screw 24. The motor 22 is fixed to the end of the guide rail seat 21, and a limit bar 23 is provided inside the guide rail seat 21. The limit bar 23 cooperates with the inner groove of the movable seat 11.

[0030] The rocking assembly 1 includes a moving base 11 adapted to be mounted with a lead screw 24, an end cover 13 fixed to the upper side of the moving base 11 via a connecting arm 12, a machine base 14 fixed to the lower part of the end cover 13, a transmission member 15 movably connected to the edge of the end cover 13 via an axis, and a drive system for rotating the transmission member 15, wherein the drive system includes a motor 16 arranged inside the machine base 14, a driving gear 17 fixed to the end of the output shaft of the motor 16, a reduction gear set 18 matched with the driving gear 17, a driving gear set 19 connected to the reduction gear set 18, and a transmission rod 110 fixed to the middle of the driving gear set 19, wherein the top of the transmission rod 110 is fixed to the transmission member 15, and the top of the transmission rod 110 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the machine base 14.

[0031] Specifically, the guide plate 3 is arranged at an angle, and a support member 31 is fixed to the lower side of the guide plate 3, and the support member 31 is fixed to the upper side of the transmission member 15 through a fastener. The upper end of the guide plate 3 cooperates with the logistics sorting system, and the lower end of the guide plate 3 cooperates with different external collection systems.

[0032] The variable slot chute of the high-response sorting system proposed in this technical solution utilizes a combination of linear motion and rotational motion to achieve rapid response and precise swinging of the guide plate 3. It is suitable for application scenarios of efficient classification and guidance of items in automated logistics sorting systems. Further detailed descriptions of the technical solution are as follows:

[0033] In the swing assembly 1, the movable seat 11 cooperates with the lead screw 24 and performs linear reciprocating motion along the linear guide rail 2 according to the rotation of the lead screw 24. The connecting arm 12 connects the movable seat 11 and the end cover 13 so that the two can be relatively fixed. The machine base 14 is fixed under the end cover 13 and is equipped with a drive system inside to control the swing of the guide plate 3.

[0034] The rotation of the transmission member 15 is controlled by the drive system in the machine base 14. In the drive system, the motor 16 is fixed inside the machine base 14 to provide rotational power. The driving gear 17 is fixed on the output shaft of the motor 16 to transmit the power of the motor 16 to the reduction gear group 18. The reduction gear group 18 cooperates with the driving gear 17 to reduce the speed and increase the torque. The driving gear group 19 is connected to the reduction gear group 18 for further transmitting the rotational power. The transmission rod 110 is fixed in the middle of the driving gear group 19 and is connected to the transmission member 15 to transmit the rotational motion to the transmission member 15, causing the guide plate 3 to swing. The swing of the guide plate 3 is used to adjust the unloading direction of the logistics goods to cooperate with the collection of goods by different collection systems.

[0035] In the linear guide rail 2, the guide rail seat 21 is the main load-bearing component of the linear guide rail 2, and the screw 24 is installed inside the guide rail seat 21. The screw 24 is driven to rotate by the motor 22, thereby driving the moving seat 11 to perform linear reciprocating motion along the linear guide rail 2. The motor 22 is used to provide power to drive the screw 24 to rotate, and the limit bar 23 plays a guiding and limiting role to ensure that the moving seat 11 moves in a straight line without deviation.

[0036] The guide plate 3 is installed at a certain inclination angle to facilitate the sliding of logistics goods from a high place to a low place. The support member 31 is fixed to the lower side of the guide plate 3 and is connected to the transmission member 15 by fasteners (such as screws) to ensure that the guide plate 3 can swing with the rotation of the transmission member 15. The upper end of the guide plate 3 is connected to the logistics sorting system to receive the items to be sorted from the upstream. The lower end of the guide plate 3 can point to different collection containers or conveyor belts to complete the classification and transportation of items.

[0037] How it works

[0038] Linear motion: The motor 22 drives the lead screw 24 to rotate, and through the spiral pair relationship between the lead screw 24 and the moving seat 11, the moving seat 11 makes a linear reciprocating motion along the linear guide rail 2.

[0039] Swing control: When the moving base 11 reaches the predetermined position, the driving system starts, the motor 16 drives the driving gear 17 to rotate, and transmits power through the reduction gear set 18 and the driving gear set 19, finally rotating the transmission rod 110, thereby driving the transmission member 15 to rotate.

[0040] The guide plate 3 swings: when the transmission member 15 rotates, the guide plate 3 is driven to swing through the support member 31, thereby changing the position of the end of the guide plate 3, thereby achieving accurate guidance and sorting of logistics goods.
